Bimo POV
"Bim, this grandfather is old, that grandfather's wish that has not been fulfilled just wants to see you get married, let's just say this is grandfather's last wish!" Grandfather's voice sounded so clear in my ears.
My God, what should I do now, why the charade I made with the aim of pleasing my grandfather even became a disaster for me at this time.
How could I accept Grandpa's proposal to marry that girl, while I don't love her in the least.
"Bim, how? Why even daydream?" grandpa's reprimand messed up all my head.
"I have to talk to Nisa first, cake!" I said reasoned.
"Nisa's here, let's talk, please" you don't seem to want to budge on me.
Grandfather was always firm in his stance, he rarely asked me for anything, but if something was asked, it was mandatory in his nature.
I glanced at Anisa, the girl's face looked pale, even she didn't seem to dare to raise her face.
God, why did I involve that innocent girl to my selfishness? This mess is getting wider, even I also involve two parents Anisa who does not know what.
"Nis," call me.
Anisa glanced at me, clearly her eyes glazed over, maybe just one blink of an eye would fall.
Duh, the more guilty I become.
Although I don't know what caused Anisa to be sad, I can seem to understand that she was shocked and frightened.
"Can we talk for a second?" Ask Anisa.
The girl nodded slowly.
"Grandpa, um, auntie, excuse me for a moment, we have to talk about important things together" said my father, there's no way to talk to Anisa in front of all of them, and it is even more impossible if I have to make a decision without first discussing with Anisa who in this context is my lover.
The three of them allowed us to talk outside to negotiate, although my grandfather had asked me and Anisa to negotiate inside the house, in front of them, but I still asked for our privacy.
I flanked the girl's hand, it felt cold like ice cubes, like she was really nervous and scared. Poor girl, I murmured in my heart.
"Mas, why is this?" Anisa asked with a quivering voice, even her tears had now fallen without her knowledge.
"I'm sorry, I really don't know that things are going to get this complicated" replied me who was now unable to look at Anisa's sad face in front of me.
Nisa and I are currently talking at the end of the courtyard of Anisa's house, precisely near the iron door I lean my back there.
I deliberately invited NIsa to speak some distance from her house so that Anisa's parents and my grandfather could not hear what we were talking about.
"How about this, I'm scared!" great-granddaughter Anisa.
"Look, I'm going to reject this marriage and say that I'm having an affair or have another lover, so what's wrong in this case is me, let me take the risk alone, because this is all based on my idea" I suggested.
Of course, as I was the one who had fought from the beginning for creating this cursed charade, I was also a man, I had to behave like a knight who dared to take risks on the path I chose.
"But, I was afraid what would happen to Grandpa" Nisa's remark made me pensive and suddenly felt the same fear.
We are equally speechless and confused as to what we should take as a decision.
"Let's get married, mas." said Anisa who just made me surprised to hear his words.
"What do you mean? Don't play, I don't love you." I replied spontaneously and tried to be honest with him.
I don't want to give him false hope, I don't love him. I still love Viona, although we are not in good condition at this time, but the name Viona has not been able to shift a bit from my heart let alone to be replaced by a stranger like Anisa who has only been a few days i'm familiar.
I still expected Viona to come back and marry him, not a single glance had it occurred to me to marry someone else, even if I had ever had a dream about marriage, the woman in my imagination is Viona, I never imagined her with anyone else.
"You think I can easily love a stranger I've only known for a few days? I don't love you either, mom!" anisa's voice is a bit higher, maybe her self-esteem was touched by my words earlier that said if I didn't love her.
"Well, what kind of marriage, where we both don't love each other?" I asked a bit confused by the meaning of what Anisa said.
"Just like the original plan, we're doing this for your grandfather, but maybe right now for my parents' sake, they've been unintentionally implicated in this lie." he said it made me feel more guilty after hearing his words.
